With precise ligament and tendon placement, the android achieves 164 degrees of freedom in its upper torso, including the shoulder with 20 degrees of freedom, the spine with 6 degrees per vertebra, and 26 degrees in the hand, wrist, and elbow.
The nervous system allows instantaneous control over the muscles with proprioceptive and visual feedback. The Clone is equipped with 4 depth cameras, 70 inertial sensors for joint-level feedback, and 320 pressure sensors for muscle force feedback. These are linked to microcontrollers that send data to the NVIDIA Jetson Thor GPU running Clone’s Cybernet model.
The Clone’s vascular system is powered by a compact, 500-watt electric pump resembling the human heart, delivering 40 SLPM at 100 psi. Its Aquajet valve technology operates under 1 watt of power, providing efficient hydraulic pressure to the muscles in a miniaturized design.
